where I can I find Crafty 19-03 or 04.eng Michel

I thought I would input one of game 3's critical positions into my Fritz8 (1.3GHz Duron w/512MB DDR SDRAM) and see what it came up with. I put Fritz8 in infinite analysis after white's 13th move of h3. Here is what it came up with: Kasparov,G - X3D Fritz r1bqk2r/1p1nbppp/1Pp2n2/p1Pp4/Q2Pp3/B1N1P2P/P2N1PP1/R3KB1R b KQkq - 0 1 Analysis by Fritz 8:

Of course, ONLY ONE of this three possible outcomes would happen when two perfect players play any number of chess games: -White always win -Black always win -The game always ends in a draw The current opinion is that in a game with two perfect players, the outcome would be always a draw. The third option is the one that would be ever *true*.

Y'know, I was going to suggest this yesterday, and after today's X3D game I gotta say, "Finish the dang games!" We want to see what the computer does right down to the forced mate, so the exhibition is not complete until then. Plenty of time for either side to screw up. Just who resigned for Fritz today -- did the program really rate itself hopeless just a couple of moves past the point that...

What's your prediction? GMs sometimes don't take enough care against computers - not so hard (relatively) maybe to strategically outwit them but prosecuting the advantage is another game (eg Kramnik's sac). The prize money - what does it matter to Kasparov financially whether he wins or draws? To me this was part of the problem with the in/famous last game of the last match he could duck out for...

Game being played ??? Thank You will it be on ESPN again ? wish they would show the whole game....

I get all nostalgic hearing the voice commentaries in the Chessmaster 9000 Classroom lessons. The commentator reminds me of 2001's talking computer, HAL. There's a similar and almost hypnotic inflection going on. Cool and detached, but intriguing and soothing at the same time. And an odd coincidence that both computer and software end in "9000"! Hmmmmm :) Aside from that, when creating a new...

Ok somebody please tell me why Fritz lost? I don't have enough chess insite here to see a clear win by Kaspy. Was is Draw or Resignation...??? Is there any other site besides X3D that I can get some anysysis from?? Very interesting game, never seens that many pawns locked up before.

I have just bought and installed a copy of Fritz 8. I seem to have the following problem. According to the instructions, you can select which chess engine to play against from a long list which includes Deep Fritz 7, Deep Junior 7, Shredder 6.0, etc. However, I only get three alternative engines: Crafty 19.01, Fritz 5.32 and Comet B50. Has anyone experienced a similar problem? What solution would...

Here is one of the few other reports I've been able to find on what happened. The game ended by resignation on the part of Fritz's programmers. But for those of use who do not have ESPN and so forth, I sure would have liked to have known why!! http://www1.chinadaily.com.cn/en/doc/2003-11/17/content_282039.htm Kasparov wins in computer chess match ( 2003-11-17 09:11) (Agencies)

Posted earlier but I incorrectly identified which pawn I was referring to. At move 32, first game (11/11/03), why didn't K take the pawn at c6? Nothing can move off the back rank or else it is immediate back rank mate (queen check; then either black queen falls back and they trade of rook takes queen, which is disaster as rook takes rook mate). So black has no answer it seems to me. Please...
